In a filing this week with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Independent Bank Group did not detail how many shares it will sell or at what price range. The firm has applied to be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol IBTX.

An official of the business was not immediately available for comment Thursday.

With roughly $1.7 billion in assets and total loans and deposits of about $1.4 billion apiece, Independent Bank has been acquisitive in recent years.

It snapped up Dallas’ Community Group last October for about $110.9 million, Dallas-based Farmersville Bancshares Inc. in Sept. 2010 for $99.4 million, and Dallas’ Town Center Bank in July 2010 for $37.4 million, according to its SEC filing.

It also bought Austin’s I Bank Holding Company Inc. in April of last year for $172.5 million, the SEC filing shows.
